Why Positive Reinforcement Dog training?

Every day more and more owners are choosing positive reinforcement to train their dogs for one reason: it works! Owners feel good knowing that the skills they impart to their animals are taught with understanding and respect and based on the science of operant and classical conditioning. Dogs love it because they have incentive to obey and the confidence that obedience will result in a pleasurable outcome. Positive reinforcement builds confidence, is simple and easy to communicate, requires no force, and creates a lasting bond between and owner and dog.
